French President Emmanuel Macron expects “clarifications and clear commitments” from US President Joe Biden in a call to take place later on Wednesday to address a dispute over submarines, Macron’s office said.

The French president’s office said the call, which was requested by Biden, is to discuss “the crisis of trust” that led to the unprecedented recall of the French ambassador to the United States.
